Compare/contrast two TV programs from the same genre but from different eras of Media HistoryPaper details:
Pick any 2 TV shows (has to be AT LEAST 20 years apart) and analyze the difference between them:

How do the changes in the content and style of the program reflect a broader change in our society and/or trends in the genre, commercial, creative, technological and/or governmental aspects of broadcasting / media history?

Example: The Flinstones vs. The Simpsons
(There are more examples in the attached essay instructions document.)

Alternatively, you can also compare 2 TV shows with a cross-cultural adaptation of a series across borders and what that reveals about key differences in the two countries’ culture, media business and production practices and / or audience expectations:

Why do some shows succeed in some markets and not others? Be careful not to take a glib glance of two cultures (e.g. Canadians are all polite). US adaptations of English Canadian shows and vice versa (e.g. Dragons Den and Shark Tank) are NOT allowed.

The entire essay is to be 2500 words/10 pages EXCLUDING the works cited list
